The Japan - made Junior Collection Telecaster is an excellent choice for beginners. It features a 24 - inch scale, which is shorter than the standard. This makes it easier to press chords, reducing finger stress when playing. The body is compact, about 94% of the original size, and a new cavity design cuts down the weight, enhancing playability. With traditional Fender styling, it looks great. The brand - new Junior Collection Modified Single Coil Telecaster® pickups produce a clear Telecaster® tone with a strong boost. Vintage - style tuners and a 6 - Saddle Vintage - Style Strings - Through - Body Tele® bridge ensure tuning stability. A back cut provides a body - hugging fit. Specifications include a Telecaster body shape, basswood body material, satin vintage white body color, satin polyester body finish, rosewood fretboard, 9.5' (241 mm) fretboard radius, 24' (610 mm) scale length, 22 frets, white dot fretboard inlays, Junior Collection Modified Single Coil Telecaster® pickups (bridge and neck), a 6 - Saddle Vintage - Style Strings - Through - Body Tele® bridge, a 3 - Ply Mint Green pickguard, nickel - plated steel strings (.009 -.042 gauges), vintage - style tuning machines, nickel/chrome hardware finish, and comes with a gig bag.
Using this Fender Japan Junior Collection Telecaster is a breeze. First, unpack it from the gig bag and place it on a stable surface. Plug in your amplifier and start strumming. When tuning, use the vintage - style tuners to get the right pitch. For beginners, the shorter 24 - inch scale makes it easier to learn chords. When playing, make sure your fingers press the strings firmly on the frets for clear notes. As for maintenance, keep the guitar in a dry place to prevent the wood from warping. Wipe the strings with a clean cloth after each use to remove sweat and dirt. Occasionally, check the tuning machines and bridge for any loose parts. If you want to change the strings, use the same gauge (.009 -.042) for consistent sound. Enjoy playing your new guitar!
